Right‐wing populism has gained ground in Europe in recent years, with the greatest support among rural communities. Yet the European countryside remains largely overlooked in debates on the current political crisis and the ways out of it. This article aims to provide keys for understanding the connection between right‐wing populism and the rural world in Europe. Our analysis unfolds around three main ideas. First, we argue that the root cause of the spread of right‐wing populism is the fundamental, multidimensional crisis of globalised neoliberal capitalism, particularly pronounced in Europe’s countryside. Second, we examine what role historical legacies, trajectories of agrarian change, and other national, regional and local specificities play in shaping populist movements in different rural areas in Europe. Finally, we discuss the constraints and possibilities for the emergence of agrarian (populist) movements that may offer progressive alternatives to right‐wing populism in the countryside.

近年来，右翼民粹主义在欧洲得到了普及，得到了农村社区的最大支持。然而，在有关当前政治危机及其解决方法的辩论中，欧洲乡村仍然在很大程度上被忽视。本文旨在为理解右翼民粹主义与欧洲农村世界之间的联系提供关键。我们的分析围绕三个主要思想展开。首先，我们认为，右翼民粹主义蔓延的根本原因是全球化的新自由主义资本主义的根本性多维危机，在欧洲农村尤为明显。其次，我们考察了历史遗产，土地变化的轨迹以及其他国家，地区和地方的特殊性在塑造欧洲不同农村地区的民粹主义运动中所起的作用。最后，
